Ratings Up for Final '09 Heroes....but not much

As Heroes takes their holiday vacation, the final episode of 2009 has an increase in viewers thanks to reruns on CBS and and uncharactaristic slip for the Grinch on ABC.

But it was not by much:

Fox was first at 8 p.m. with a 4.8 for “House,” followed by ABC with a 3.0 for “Grinch” (2.9) and “Shrek” (3.2). NBC was third with a 2.5 for “Heroes,” CBS fourth with a 1.9 for repeats of “How I Met Your Mother” and “Accidentally on Purpose,” Univision fifth with a 1.4 for “El Nombre del Amor” and CW sixth with a 1.1 for “One Tree Hill.” Source: http://www.medialifemagazine.com/artman2/publish/Overnights_50/ABC_s_Grinch_special_takes_a_tumble.asp

As a matter of fact if you look at those numbers, Heroes was actually in SECOND place against Big Greenie.

Last week, Claire and the Carnies did a 2.3. This does not include DVR viewing.

Next Heroes will be Jan 4th as they move back to 9/8 central following the return of Chuck.
